The Danger of Self-Service

This message on Judges 17:7-13 looks at how a wandering Levite prostituted his true calling by operating an idolatorous shrine owned by Micah, who payed him well. The passage warns us of the great danger of self-servie. It teaches us that all people of God want to be useful [v7-8]; but we often serve for selfish reasons [v8-11]; self-service worships man not God [v12-13]; and, Christ has paid for our self-service [v7-13]. The message encourages us to keep our focus on Jesus and serve Him for Him! The sermon is part of our series in Judges preached in 2017-18.
